2. Press and hold the ASB button.
3. Release the reset button.

To display the bank from which the G250/G350 is currently set to load its firmware upon startup
or reset, type the show boot bank command.

your FTP or TFTP server. Then, use one of the following commands to upload the file to the
G250/G350. For each of these commands, include the full path of the file and the IP address of
the FTP or TFTP host as parameters. When you enter the command, the CLI prompts you for a
